Lorenzo had sat back down too and his head dropped against the back of the chair with a sigh. "Not from unprotected sex, dickhead." He looked at Karla because he had to clarify now. "Not from unprotected sex. I tried to avoid that as much as I could. There were times I was in contact with a lot of Mara's blood for... she had suicide attempts, and when she was hit by the bus, it was... yeah, you get the idea. It could be worse. At least this is treatable and I should be back on track in around twelve months, give or take. It's not me I'm concerned about right now anyway, it's Lewis. I'm fine." He knew that Clint had to deal with a lot returning to a situation that was absolutely nothing like he had left it. Lorenzo did respect that, but it was harder to when Clint was being typical shithead and frustrating the fuck out of him. But that was their relationship. Through it all, they were still really close, they were just very different and always had been.
He had closed his eyes through hearing this again, massaging the corners of them with the tips of his fingers. He still didn't know how he really felt about all this inside. It had hit him hard to hear about it, and he kind of lost his shit over it when Clint revealed it. But at the same time, he had gone to Louisiana and married Lewis, so they were all guilty of reckless abandonment on some level. It was a really fucked up situation, and he knew it must sound incredibly freakish in a nutshell like this. He opened his eyes again. "I'm sorry about all this. I know it sounds unbelievable on a lot of levels, but Clint's reckless. He has this weird gut feeling that's always right, and he's never been one to play on the safe side. He does a lot of shit we don't want to know about. It's just what he does. But this was to put a serial rapist away. Justin and Jude weren't the only ones. There was another dude in college years ago. Now it's come out that he was following Justin from the theatre one night. It's all a huge mess, but it just is what it is. I'll totally understand if neither of you want anything to do with it all."
